The ordinance mandates annual energy benchmarking and requires building owners to disclose energy consumption data to the city.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here&#8217;s what building owners must know about the EPO.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Firstly, covered buildings are those that are 10,000 square feet or larger and contain five or more residential units or non-residential spaces. Building owners must report their building&#8217;s energy usage data annually to the <a href=\"https:\/\/sfenvironment.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">San Francisco Department of the Environment.<\/a> The data is then made publicly available on the city&#8217;s website.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Secondly, building owners must conduct energy audits every five years to identify energy-saving opportunities. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecotocongroup.com\/energy-audit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">energy audit<\/a> must be conducted by a qualified professional and must include recommendations for energy-saving measures.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thirdly, building owners must disclose the energy performance of their building to prospective buyers, lessees, and lenders during the transaction process. This helps ensure that building energy efficiency is considered in real estate transactions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fourthly, the EPO has penalties for noncompliance. Failure to comply with the energy benchmarking and disclosure requirements can result in fines of up to $1,000 per violation per day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In conclusion, building owners in San Francisco need to be aware of the requirements of the Energy Performance Ordinance. Compliance with the ordinance can help reduce energy consumption, save money on utility bills, and improve the overall energy performance of buildings.<\/p>\n<p>For More Information, <a
